Heading North

Friday, August 21, 2009S.V. CAMBRIA

I had a great time in Wichita returning on Tuesday completely exhausted. My week there flew by in a flurry of activities and I was able to visit relatives I hadn’t seen for nine years making it a mini-family reunion as well. The wedding was wonderful and my niece was the most beautiful bride I’d even seen.

We made the most of our layover in Poulsbo by fully re-provisioning and catching up with friends, but we’re both getting antsy and it’s time to head north. We left this morning, after fueling up, and arrived in Port Townsend around 4 pm where the wind was blowing 15 to 20 knots and it was much colder. That evening, we met up with Jeff and Karry Bice for the obligatory meal at Waterfront Pizza and homemade ice cream at Evolution. They brought garden-fresh corn, carrots, and potatoes with them as well as a crab (thoughtfully cleaned and cooked) greatly improving our meal options for the next few days.
